Paperback. Zustand: Good. This provocative volume illuminates a dimension of John Wesley's theology that has received insufficient attention: his deep and abiding commitment to the poor. By focusing on the radical nature of Wesley's evangelical economics, Theodore W. Jennings, Jr., provides an important corrective to the view that Wesley was concerned with the salvation of souls only, and not also with the social conditions of human beings.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Many books on the Christian doctrine of atonement have been publishedin recent years. Some point out the difficulties of traditionalatonement theories; others attempt a revision of one of the classicalthree types; others attempt to combine aspects of these types. Jennings attempts something new: by approaching the question of themeaning of the cross through close attention to the biblical passagesthat serve as the basis of any reflection on the cross of Jesus and anengagement with patristic as well as contemporary discussion. Theresult is an alternative theology of the cross that grounds themessage concerning the cross in the socio-political reality in whichit was historically located and points to the way in which thismessage bears upon contemporary social and ecclesial reality. Jennings's truly fresh understanding for Christians of the meaning ofJesus' death specifically grounds the cross in the concrete politicalconfrontation within which it occurred, relates the message about thecross to the practice of Jesus (thus keeping in relationship thegospels and the theology of Paul), and shows how the cross bears onovercoming of human division and sin, reconciliation to God, and newforms of social reality in the community of the crucified.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. June Papers is a twenty-eight-year-old MFA grad with a felony record, 'the classic young, Black and gifted American misfit.' He's also a substitute teacher. He's also homeless. With dreams of becoming a writer, June endures a host of trials and dilemmas as he reluctantly realizes mentoring and teaching might actually be a path forward for him. Wings of Red is driven by June's unique narrative style, a propulsive voice that intimately and vulnerably guides readers through the condemned external reality of a Black educator's personal and professional world falling apart, and coming together again. Populated by a host of true-to-life characters who are attempting to realize their dreams despite precarious professional and financial realities, Wings of Red elucidates the fallacy of the American dream while serving as a reminder of how powerful and necessary autofiction can be. Directed at students and educators but written for any audience, Wings of Red is an inspiring and poetic tour de force and an unexpectedly necessary ode to New York City that features a texture, velocity, and immediacy that speaks to the author's authentic and lived perspective.…

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. This is not just a Jewish story; this is an American story.-Dan Wolf, son of Rabbi Alfred WolfRichard Damashek, PhD, follows his captivating biography, A Brand Plucked from the Fire, with another meticulously researched work about the tremendous impact five German rabbinical students had on Reform Judaism and the Jewish community in America. When W. Gunther Plaut, Herman Schaalman, Wolli Kaelter, Alfred Wolf, and Leo Lichtenberg arrived in the United States after fleeing Nazi Germany, they had no plans to rebel against the Reform Judaism of the day, but the contributions of these five men would dramatically alter its course and shape its destiny. Beginning with their births during World War I, Damashek tells the stories of their early lives, continuing through their escape from Hitler's regime in 1935, their adaptations to their new country, and their eventual role in shaping twentieth century Reform Judaism.These five men were refugees and religious outsiders, who helped transform their new religious community. Through their writings and their leadership, they helped promote new and exciting religious experiences for their synagogues and for Reform Judaism around the world. Their contributions to youth summer camping helped revitalize and infuse a much-needed spirituality into late twentieth century Reform Judaism that helped set the stage for its ongoing development. The Gang of Five is a celebration of their lives, their rabbinates, and their contributions to Reform Judaism.…
